Disciple Group

About DIsciple Group

The Disciple Group is a one-year small group focused on intentional discipleship building. The Disciple Group focuses on creating accountable Christian community, deepening spiritual disciplines, and a growing in our personal knowledge of the faith. We look forward to you joining us to grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ and to live out Scripture's Story.

Who Can Join?

The Disciple Group is open to anyone at Aldersgate, including both lifelong church members and those who are new to the church. If you are interested in participating in the group please submit your name on the sign-up sheet during worship. We also invite you to nominate others in the church who exhibit great potential to grow in the faith. All names submitted will be contacted and asked if they are willing to make the commitment to the Disciple Group. There are no fees associated with this group, though the cost is our full commitment to Christ.

Through the Disciple Group I am truly becoming closer to God and am learning to become a critical thinking with relation to the Scriptures. Starting with ourselves, we are truly disciples making disciples.

Retreat

The Disciple Group will begin with an overnight retreat to Bonnie Doone Plantation. Our retreat is necessary for building relationships, sharing our personal stories, and for setting the tone for the year. The retreat will be held March 25 and 26.

Prayer Partners

Each month the Disciple Group members are paired with a prayer partner from within the group. Prayer partners check-in with each other at least weekly to discuss faith, personal life, and how we can hold one another accountable to growing in Christ. And, of course, we pray for each other.

Monthly Meetings

The Disciple Group meets monthly to check-in with each other, study the Christian faith, and learn about Christian spirituality. The monthly meetings are held on the 3rd Monday of the month from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. Childcare is available upon request.
